Abstract

Web Intelligence deals with intelligent methods and information & communication technologies that are integrated to enhance different web-based applications. Communities are popular, particularly on the World Wide Web, as a means for like-minded individuals to pursue common goals. Communities appear as a first-class object in the areas of web intelligence and agent technologies, as well as a crucial crossroads of several sub-domains i.e. user modeling, protocols, data management, data mining, content modeling, etc.. These sub-domains impact the nature of the communities and the applications which are related to them. The use of Web Intelligence and communities is discussed together with ways in which a wide range of research is benefiting this area for the long-term.
